What is business fraud insurance?

Business fraud insurance is a key component of today’s corporate risk management and supports a proactive approach to mitigating the ever-present risk and often significant business impact of internal and external fraud.

It supports an organisation’s risk prevention, provides support once fraud is detected, and, crucially, it covers financial losses.

Internal and external protection

Business fraud insurance protects against fraud committed by what are known as ‘trusted persons’. From permanent and temporary staff, through to external contractors and consultants, you’re covered for theft, fraud, embezzlement or damage to property.

It also covers businesses from certain external threats perpetrated by scammers and organised criminals. This includes robbery, theft, fraud and main variants of the increasing threat of social engineering.

Business fraud insurance can also sometimes be referred to as commercial crime insurance or fidelity insurance.
